07 C30 slight judder/ hesitation at 40mph
Hi all
I've got a lovely little C30 2.0D, 2007. It drives great, but sometimes when doing around 40mph in 4th (not accelerating, just cruising) it develops a slight judder/ stutter/ hesitation. As soon as I accelerate it goes. Some days worse that others. Any ideas what I could check? |

Hi, yes it does it in 4th, 5th or 6th but only at 40mph..... Only had the car 6 months, never had tyres checked.... that might have to be 1st on the list!!! Thanks

My best guess would be misshapen tyres or the wheels need balancing. If the tread is low or the tyres look old maybe a fresh set might be an idea if budget allows, followed by checking the tracking. Let us know how you get on.

OK thanks, thinking about it now, I think the tyres are a lot more worn on the inside edge... I'll get them checked.... thank you for your help Markos01
